"We had approached police and no action was taken. So we approached the magistrate court and in 2013, Sanjay was issued the summons. At that time, he wasn't coming to court and he was issued a warrant. But just 4-5 days later, he had to surrender in court (for another case). So that time, it got cancelled", said Shakeel Noorani's lawyer.

"Even after coming out of the jail, he didn't come to the court. February 7, 2017 was the last date of the case, we wanted a warrant to be issued that time itself, but the court said let's give him one more chance," said Noorani's lawyer.
